There is quite a story to be told about the people and places in the San Luis Valley. This is a story with roots not only in southern Colorado, but the southern United States. It’s a national story about how our country was formed.

It’s a story about the creativity, ingenuity, and resilience of the first Hispano, railroad, and agricultural communities in our country.

As a Member of the Sangre de Cristo National Heritage Area (SdCNHA) you help us to preserve these critically important places and stories. As we start a new year, we ask you to give generously by becoming a member.

In 2018, we are offering first time memberships to the Sangre de Cristo National Heritage Area. This is your opportunity to be among the first to take advantage of this new opportunity. We rely on your support to create a sense of pride in the area’s heritage and its ability to be a positive influence on our future.

This past year the Sangre de Cristo National Heritage Area led and funded projects that enhanced community pride and cultural preservation. In addition, the SdCNHA also supported educational projects that increased students’ connection to land, water, and this place we all cherish.

But we cannot continue these important programs and our mission to preserve and promote this vibrant story without your help! In 2017 our federal funding was jeopardized and we spent a majority of the year fighting to keep that vital funding coming into the San Luis Valley. Please give generously today to help preserve the story of our states oldest communities.
